Hey!

Say - anyone attempted to setup Ogre in Eclipse on Ubuntu?

I'm attempting to run through this here tutorial, it refers to a file called bootstrap in the eclipse workspace/ogreproject/ directory.

This so called bootstrap is severely absent and as such my attempt has been thwarted.

A: 

ah! looks like this advice will do the trick.

seems bootstrap is a part of OIS.

there you go.

Er, that's the wrong "bootstrap" as it were. bootstrap is just a common name for a script which generatures a configure script using autotools. The problem is that the wiki no longer accurately describes how to build from SVN since they've changed build systems.

Ok, actually, I guess that's the answer in my comment above. Check out the most recently tagged version in the SVN (1.6.2). That still uses autotools to generate the Makefile, so you have a bootstrap script there.

The SVN head, however, is now using CMake, so the wiki will need to be updated.

Oh - thanks very much!

You are so damn right! For those that might stumble over this too - you need to install cmake-gui and run it from the Ogre directory. (And NOT the Ogre/OgreMain directory ;) ).
